Delighted to be presenting at the CBExchange conference in Singapore. Excited to hear more and the opportunities to develop models of education that values learning in industry and work roles. The Singapore Government is supporting this innovation at a national level.
This is horrific! Women and girls are being forced into s€x to get the water their families need. Help ban 's€xtortion' in Kenya. Now! Sign & RT: secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en…

@OTNZWNA conference. Gayle Restall presentation challenges us that occupational therapist can never be neutral. We are embedded in colonial structures and privilege and racism. There are ethical and moral imperatives to change.

Thrilled to share our research exploring how WIL is conceptualised through comparing the WIL education standards across 15 Australian AH professions. Our key findings? There is diversity in the standards reflected differing understandings of what WIL is.mdpi.com/2414136

#OTA2023 very proud of Terri Grant talking about her research and theory of student learning on placement in 4 mins.
Great to hear about a virtual international student placement by Joanne Murray Apricus Health in Townsville and Uni of Worcester - thanks to collaborator Alison Double. Inspiring to hear how this worked and could grow with more countries.
